Eyes squat so intense,
in closed-door of mense.

between a closed door
   and a closed mind
   I can break down a door
   to save you

unnoticed glance
unheard utterance
misinterpreted touch

absent heart

closed door....

True heroism lies 
Behind a closed door
Where a man can lash out 
And win a battle - 
But doesn’t....

Still.' So winter lies..
Cast away stones eyes blind
Closed door; That cold strikes..'

A door unopened
the knock
makes almost
no sound
so subliminal
is
the flimsy veil
of steel
that guards the answer....

And in the cold winter rain
I keep you in my heart in frame.
A few steps back from this closed door,
You will be mine forever more....

You never were 
on my side
closed heart
closed mind 
closed door
closed eyes
you didn't give me a place
where to cry.

closed door; alone home
winter wanders with cool glue 
silent all around
white snow plays warmly a rule 
in poetic expression

Chasing Rainbow 



Eyes
staring 
constantly 
at the closed door;
For years waiting to see him return home.

Time will fly by today like it did yesterday
Before you know it today will be yesterday
      Take advantage of today
   Tomorrow ain't nothing but a closed door....

Much In Store with Closed Door

Trumps saves things and keeps in store;
Each policy he does have is closed door;
In secret kept,
While we slept,
And no wonder him we all do deplore.

Left the dentist with a swollen gum,
closed door by accident on thumb,
slipped on porch felt pretty dumb,
made snow angel for fun,
caked snow on my bum,
gum, thumb, bum
really
numb...

Confined shoes 
Toes struggle
Toes gossip
Barefooted
Cross - legged
Toes tangled
Gossip too
Closed door
Round table 
Voted compromise
No gossips 
Open air 
Mouth gulps food
Mouth giggles 
Teeth gossip too...

An open path
to a closed door
With a heavy lock
A dead end
A new beginning
A heart
that had fallen
jumped
The heavy door 
no more than
a handle
That need not
turn
and
the door
that had
never closed

opened...

the door has been closed
it has been bolted and locked
don't try the window

my heart is secure
your words are no longer "keys"
soul sanctuary

image is tarnished
no longer will I welcome
a fallen hero

I win- I love you more
I still love you
outside the closed door.
I love you with tears,
knocking until my knuckles bleed
so now I sit outside in silence
enjoying your noise instead.
I was the only one
who meant what I said....

Oh my concentrated multitudes
of long lost contact
twixt u and I , my dear one
pressed souls, felt bodies
deep into my flesh and bones
you have risen in me
a closed door, hidden from
all who seek, no key existing.
Only gentle kisses, to wetten
Locked bolt ever open....

it's chilly,
it's tense,
the morning i saw you
lay down on the floor–
i meant to annoy you...

my voice was choked up,
i couldn't shout out.
the voices i heard
were getting too loud.

it's noisy,
it's dead.
it lays on the floor,
it's asking for help
behind closed door....

The house still sleeps,
Coughs, rustles, creaks
scuttle under my closed door.
The truck grumbles into the alley.
It used to be a barmaid 
trashing bottles near
the house where I grew up
making pops and clinks.
Now it's trucks collecting bins,
dumping glass in their broad bellies
huffing away down the alley....

dripping tap in an empty sink
passing away the hours
the table where she always sat
naked without a cloth

the stove well used
now forgotten
grown cold with time

white china cups on a dusty shelf
waiting to be filled again
and slowly sipped

a closed door
can't  hold back the memories
in my mothers kitchen...

the wind turns my apple tree
into a victim, a lover banging
on a closed door of gnarled wood,

a dance makes this ringing evening
singular, the leaves agree to fall
and turn in the moving faith of air;

they tell us about birth and departure,
about leaving together, stories of
ending as the sun arcs and protests...
